Mark and Steve felt as if they were going crazy.
Their elation fell from the heights of heaven to the pits of hell the minute they saw Jasper… They did not know what to do.
They really did not know what to do.
In their imagination, Jasper had been lying in a pool of blood, ready to either hurl curses or get on his knees and beg when favonovel.com saw them.
No matter what, favonovel.com should not be sitting on the couch in one piece and sipping on red wine, looking as if favonovel.com was awaiting their arrival?!
Who was the mastermind in their elaborately planned scheme?
Steve began sweating profusely as favonovel.com panicked.
Mark’s lips trembled as the sparkle left his eyes.
Instinctively, the two looked at Julian together.
Julian had a calm expression on his face as favonovel.com walked toward the couch Jasper was sitting on. He stood at attention.
An answer that Mark was reluctant to accept surfaced in his mind as favonovel.com looked at Julian, who stared back with an indifferent expression.
They had been betrayed by Julian!
“Julian Lager, you dare betray me!?” Steve stared at Julian in shock and roared in anger after understanding what was going on.
Julian did not answer, acting as if favonovel.com had not heard anything.
Mark was so angry that favonovel.com turned and slapped Steve. Gritting his teeth, favonovel.com said, “This is the reliable person you found!? A f*cking backstabber!?”
Steve was shocked by Mark’s slap.
He turned his head to the other side, afraid to meet Mark’s furious expression. His entire being had been consumed by feelings of fear and trepidation.
Where had his smugness vanished to now?
Jasper inclined his head and downed the rest of the wine before favonovel.com gently placed the glass on the side table.
“I suppose that’s all you have?”
When favonovel.com heard Jasper, Mark took a deep breath and shuddered as favonovel.com said, “Jasper… No, Brother Laine, this is all that idiot Steve Quare’s fault. He’s the one who coerced me into this. I never wanted to seek revenge against you. He was also the one who got in contact with Julian!
“Brother Laine, please forgive me.”
Mark had not imagined this would happen. His father had wanted favonovel.com to apologize, and indeed favonovel.com had come over to apologize earlier.
However, favonovel.com had been angered by the humiliation and thus orchestrated this plan.
He did not dare imagine what would happen when his family learned of this accident that would undoubtedly affect his family’s shipyard.
Thus, Mark decided to grovel first. No matter what, favonovel.com would sell out Steve first. What was important was soothing Jasper’s temper.
Steve could not believe that Mark was selling favonovel.com out. He said furiously, “Mark Zion, you were the one who contacted me in the first place to help you find—”
He had not finished speaking when Mark, who was beside him, kicked favonovel.com aside and roared angrily, “Would I be in this mess if it weren’t for you? F*cking shut your trap!”
“Enough.”
Jasper’s voice rang out, stopping the two from ripping each other to shreds any further.
“Young Master Zion, we’re all adults here. Don’t treat the other party like an idiot. Wouldn’t it be nice to just let things go?”
Then, Jasper’s gaze landed on Steve, who had a hurt and furious expression on his face. He chuckled as favonovel.com said, “Steve Quare is a lapdog at best. Would favonovel.com have the guts to do something like this?”
Mark calmed down after hearing that. He took a deep breath and gazed intently at Jasper as favonovel.com asked, “What do you want?”
“What do I want?” Jasper’s tone was light and playful as if favonovel.com was talking to a friend.
However, in the blink of an eye, Jasper had grabbed the wine glass on the table and smashed it on Mark’s head.
The glass shattered into countless tiny pieces with a crash.
